Ni Cost of Goods for WooCommerce

Overview

About this plugin

Ni Cost of Goods for WooCommerce adds a cost price (COGS / purchase price) to every simple and variable product and turns it into clear profit reports, so you know your true gross profit and profit margin on every sale – not just revenue.

WooCommerce shows you sales, but it does not tell you what those sales cost you. This cost of goods plugin fills the gap: enter what you pay for each product and it calculates profit per product, per order, per customer and per category, with dashboards, date filters and year‑over‑year analysis built in.

Every report is fully compatible with WooCommerce HPOS (High‑Performance Order Storage) and with classic post‑based order storage, so your profit figures stay accurate on any store.

Why track cost of goods in WooCommerce?

Know your real net profit and profit margin, not just turnover.

Find low‑margin and loss‑making products before they hurt your bottom line.

Price new products with confidence using accurate cost data.

Compare profit month by month and year by year to see what is working.

Value your inventory at cost for accounting and stock planning.
